Abstract

The chapter investigates technical and organizational peculiarities of the Northern delivery with Yakutia as a case study. Specifically, it looks into the nomenclature of transported goods, volumes of cargo flows, projects of ships of the sea and river fleet, needs of each point, and distances between them, infrastructure of ports and port points, audit of the technical and economic indicators of projects of ships of the operating fleet, and the calculated time of a round trip. Such analysis is rooted in mathematical methods applied to the planning of the work of mixed and river shipments. Quantitative modelling implies the task of distributing cargo flows between sea basins, the task of placing river vessels along the lines, and calculating the optimal plan for supplying tonnage for loading. The authors conclude by identifying the key problems and suggesting related solutions to sustain the Northern delivery broken down to technical characteristics of particular types of vessels to be used.
